Another one bites the dust...

Bringing my hands up and leaning even further back, I bring up my feet up, performing a cartwheel, managing to kick the hidden blade from the Duel-colored girl's hand.

Landing on my feet again, I looked at my two opponents, momentarily ignoring the commotion behind me, I raise my handgun and pull the trigger.

"Neo!"

Roman shouted at the girl, worried or angry, I did not know but that didn't matter.

The girl, Neo, opened the umbrella, blocking the bullets...

Okay, I am not a petty person or one that is easy to enrage, irritate yes, enrage no, but... I call Hax!

That's an umbrella! These are dust bullets! The math doesn't add up!

Unseen to anyone, my eye twitched.

Leaning to the side, I dodge a sword that attempted to slice me in half and stabbed my dagger through the man's jaw and up to his brain.

I glared at the cheating bitch.

Unsheathing the dagger from its new sheath, I dash forward.

Neo caught the falling hidden blade and took a very weird defensive position.

I was at a disadvantage, I have learned about the style of fighting on every weapon theoretically, but an umbrella wasn't on the list.

People and their weird weapons.

I tried to stab through it, but the woman closed it and intercepted my dagger with her own. Following the momentum, I spun around and brought the muzzle of my gun to her head.

A sound of a gunshot rang out followed by the sound of glass shattering...

Fuck this, Heat vision time.

My field of vision turned from normal to blue, and I could see the red figures in the corner of my eyes, and two running off. More like one was leaning on the other while limping.

...The stupidest thing you can do.

Boosting my speed with aura, I dash forward, going for her heart.

Looks like the two heard my approach when Roman leaned to the side, allowing Neo to turn around and face me with her stupid umbrella.

She stepped to the side, leaving Roman wide open, and unsheathed the hidden blade, ready to stab where I would stand, right in front of her previous position.

If I didn't have the Heat vision on, I would most likely see her trying to defend Roman.

Too bad for her.

With a burst of speed granted by my aura, I stopped right in front of my surviving victim.

I could see his lone, intact eye widen as I brought my dagger and stabbed it through his neck.

Blood splattered on my mask and I could imagine the life leaving his eyes, ever so slowly.

With a twist, I ripped out the left side of his neck as I spun around, avoiding an enraged ice-cream-themed girl.

She seemed too angry for this to be just another boss for her. So now I had to kill her to avoid revenge. Here was my chance to kill her, she was enraged, not thinking clearly.

Turning into smoke, I put some distance between us as I reload my handgun, pocketing the empty magazine when a pressed the button.

Instead of charging at me recklessly, she got on her knees next to roman's dead body, crying a river.

...Ugh, I want a cookie right now. Too old for this shit.

She was there, I could see it with my heat vision, she seemed so broken, so lost. Like someone just took her only reason to live.

I wasn't falling for it.

Quickly taking out a black magazine, I load it into the pistol.

With a pull of a trigger, I watch as blood splattered on the ground, only adding to the pool that was already there.

Giving a quick glance, I saw Blake and the Monkey guy finishing up with the Grunts.

Grabbing the empty chamber and walking closer to the corpses, I bend down to take the black bullet that I shot. I didn't much care about the chamber but the bullet itself was made from the same material as my dagger.

Most wouldn't waste such precious metal... Mostly because it was illegal, but anyway, they wouldn't use this kind of metal for bullets, but I figured out that having a few was useful. Mostly against people with aura.

Turning to the missing team member, I saw that Yang and Weiss were coming in the distance.

Sending a quick glance at Summer who was quiet the whole time, I noticed that she looked horrified. I had a suspicion that it wasn't because of the killing, but the one who was doing it. She was a huntress, she had killed before, she just wasn't expecting her fifteen-year-old son to be killed without hesitation.

"T-these weren't your first kills, were they?"

I wonder what gave it away? The fact that I did it like it was nothing or the fact that it was... a Penta kill?

I shook my head slightly as I bent down and looked through Romans' pockets, looking for his scroll.

"When did you make your first kill?"

Sighing slightly, I take out the scroll from the pocket of his jacket and move on to Neo.

"A year ago, about after I finished my exams to skip two years."

She winced, was she not expecting this? I was too smooth for it to be before beacon.

"D-Dose your father know."

I felt really irritated for no apparent reason, this was a valid question, coming from a concerned mother, but it pissed me off.

"No, no, he doesn't know, he's gone half the time on missions or in bars, drinking his sorrows away. He didn't even have the courage to tell me that he was my father, thinking that I couldn't figure it out, not thinking that I did not, in fact, resemble Taiyang at all, so no, Qrow doesn't know."

I open up Neo's scroll noticing that there was no password... Weird. There was one on Roman's though but I could get into it, no problem.

"He even tried to stop me one time, managed to escape, but never seen him chasing me again."

Turning back around to my team, who just finished off the last of the grunts, I smirked slightly when I noticed them ready to engage in combat with me.

Sometimes, they were hilarious.

Without further notice, I turned into smoke and dashed away, seeping through some crates as I headed towards the fence to make my getaway, ignoring the sirens that were getting louder and louder.
